A few weeks ago I was chatting with a close friend. She and I were first roommates and then turned into friends sharing the same wavelength on philosophy, humor etc. Life took us to different cities and we both became occupied with our lives. In the past few months her work and studies demanded a … Continue reading Stress, stress..go away.

Dead wild goose
My typical drive to work wasn’t as typical today. I left home knowing that I was running late ( well..coz I woke up late). I was driving on my normal route which had regular traffic as you would expect in a busy Chicago suburb. While passing through one of the intersections and singing along with … Continue reading Dead wild goose
Hello again..
I know it has been a while since I last spoke to you. My last conversation with you here was about the changes I was experiencing in my life. In the midst of those changes I had to ask myself- Who I was and who I wanted to be? Whoever tells you that this process … Continue reading Hello again..
The Changing room-II
It is scary..to not know. To not know where you are headed when you have always felt like you did. You took pride in your clarity of purpose and alignment of every thought, action and word. It makes you question the very foundation that you once stood on and built yourself. Fears and insecurities begin … Continue reading The Changing room-II

There cannot be darkness without light and hence light is always … Continue reading There is Light seeking us
The Wisdom in Stillness
Being still does not mean you are stagnant. When you are separated from external activity, through an illness, job loss etc, it is not a punishment. Embrace it as a time for renewal and healing. Winter is nature’s time to lie low and renew. Everyone one of us lives through different seasons in … Continue reading The Wisdom in Stillness
My dirty laundry epiphany
My dirty laundry epiphany I am beginning this blog with a confession for a change.Here it goes.. I spend a lot of my time denying my humanly flaws and limitations. Somewhere I nurture a belief that I am superior to others or better than others in some ways. Where I learned that from? Well, I … Continue reading My dirty laundry epiphany
Is your mind wearing a blanket?
Picture this. You are new to a city. Work gets you there and you commute hours each day to reach home from office and back. You are walking in a suburban crossway. You pass by the same person, a stranger everyday. You simply happen to develop a liking for him out of the want for … Continue reading Is your mind wearing a blanket?
